Caring for Your Parents: PBS Caregiver Handbook
The Public Broadcasting Company (PBS) provides the public with some fantastic resources for preparing yourself to begin caring for your parents. First of which is the “Cargiver’s Handbook.”
PBS recognizes that as our population ages, more and more adult children will be “grappling with an unprecedented social, cultural, economic, and personal revolution as they transition into the primary caregiver role for their aging parents.”
“Caring for Your Parents” is a two hour program that addresses each of these realities. The program concludes with a half hour panel discussion about how to take the first step in beginning to have the difficult discussion about parental caregiving.
The website provides you with: a program locator tool to determine when the program will be airing in your local area, a way to buy a dvd of the program, the ability to watch the program online, and to subscribe to vodcast interviews with caregiving experts Hugh Delehanty and Elinor Ginzler.
